[[PageOutline(2, Table of Contents)]] = GENI Control Framework Working Group (control-wg) = == Charter == '''Working Group Scope''' What is universal across GENI components? How will evolution be accommodated with or without a full transition of all GENI nodes at once? Topics in-scope include: - component control (obtaining and managing resources) - slice control (interfaces and mechanisms for establishing and controlling slices) - access control within GENI (usage policy representation and administration mechanisms) - interactions external to GENI (federation) - key enablers (identity, authentication) '''Chairs''': [mailto:ricci!@cs.utah.edu Rob Ricci], [mailto:chase@cs.duke.edu Jeff Chase] '''GPO System Engineer''': [mailto:chris@geni.net Christopher Small] '''Mail list''': control-wg@geni.net / [http://lists.geni.net/mailman/listinfo/control-wg subscribe] / [http://lists.geni.net/pipermail/control-wg/ mailman archive] / [http://www.nabble.com/GENI-Control-Framework-WG-f31331.html nabble archive] ---- == Announcements == The Control Framework Working Group will meet at GEC6. See the [wiki:GEC6CFWGAgenda draft agenda]. ---- == Meeting Minutes and Presentations == * [wiki:GEC6CFWGAgenda Control Framework WG Meeting at the GEC-6: Meeting minutes, including all presentations (November 18, 2009)] * [wiki:GEC4CFWGAgenda Control Framework WG Meeting at the GEC-4: Meeting minutes, including all presentations (April 1, 2009)] * [wiki:CFWGGEC3 Control Framework WG Meeting at the GEC-3: Meeting minutes, including all presentations (October 2008)] ---- == Work-in-Progress == * [http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/GeniControlFrameworkRequirements GENI Control Framework Requirements] * [GeniRspec RSpec] * [GeniControlIdentity Identity] ---- == DRAFT Control Framework Documents == The following control framework documents have been drafted by the GPO to expand upon (and replace) the [GeniControlFrameworkArchitecture GENI Control Framework Architecture (CFA)] document that was introduced at GEC3. PLEASE NOTE: All documents are still in DRAFT form. The overview documents are currently being reviewed by their respective teams, but their initial reviews have not been completed. The community is invited to review these drafts and provide comments, additions or changes to the WG SE, Harry Mussman, at hmussman@bbn.com . We would also like to do interactive reviews, perhaps one or more 1-hour conference calls. Would you be interested in participating is such a call? If so, please contact the WG SE, Harry Mussman, at hmussman@bbn.com '''GENI Control Framework Requirements'''[[BR]] GENI-SE-CF-RQ-01.3[[BR]] This document defines the GENI control framework subsystem, and then specifies its requirements. It is a DRAFT, to be used for discussion in the GENI Control Framework working group. Once approved, it can be used as a guide to judge the completeness of prototype control framework designs, and as a guide to their continued evolution.''[[BR]] http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/GeniControlFrameworkRequirements/010909b%20%20GENI-SE-CH-RQ-01.3.pdf (updated 1/9/09)[[BR]] This document has a wiki page at GeniControlFrameworkRequirements. '''PlanetLab GENI Control Framework Overview'''[[BR]] GENI-SE-CF-PLGO-01.2[[BR]] This document provides an overview of the PlanetLab GENI control framework being implemented for Spiral 1, for use in Cluster B. It is a DRAFT, to be used for discussion in the GENI Control Framework working group. (Note: A review of this document by the PlanetLab team is underway, but has not yet been completed.) It provides a description of the PlanetLab GENI control framework structure, a summary of how it meets the requirements as presented in the “GENI Control Framework Requirements”, and a view of its implementation at the start and the finish of Spiral 1.''[[BR]] http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/PlanetLabGeniControlFrameworkOverview/011409%20%20GENI-SE-CF-PlanetLabGENIOver-01.2.pdf (updated 1/14/09)[[BR]] This document has a wiki page at PlanetLabGeniControlFrameworkOverview.
